“…10 Anastásio Ovejero Bernal explica o fenômeno com a tese da memória social ou coletiva: a capacidade de sermos levados a esquecer os grandes desastres, que "... provienen de la tremenda contradicción que existe entre la fragilidad y distorsión de nuestros recuerdos, por una parte, y la enorme confianza que tenemos en ellos, por otra" (in "Fundamentos de Psicología Jurídica e Investigación criminal", p. 83). 11 Lex 25 - § 26: Além disto, a Autoridade ou Dirigente seja obrigado a forçar todos hereges, os que tiver capturado, a confessar seus erros expressamente, assim como verdadeiramente ladrões, e homicidas de almas, e surrupiadores dos sacramentos de Deus e da Fé Cristã, e a acusar outros hereges, os que conhecem, e os crentes e os receptadores, e os defensores deles, assim como são forçados os surrupiadores e os ladrões das coisas temporais, a acusar seus cúmplices, e a confessar os malefícios que fizeram, até o limite da diminuição de membro e perigo de morte (obs. : tradução do latim.…”

“…The principle seems to be thriving due to its uncertainty and ambiguity". 31 The point is emphasized by A., M., WEISBURD maintaining that "(…) any consideration of the concept of jus cogens is necessarily rather complex". 32 The author considers the implications of the difficulty in specifying the content of jus cogens, arguing that this problem reveals fundamental theoretical and practical problems with the concept.…”

ABSTRACT:-This research paper is focused on the issue of peremptory norms (jus cogens), formulated in the 1969 Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, and its applicability in core Human Rights implementation. It thus examines the nature of jus cogens and its formation vis-à-vis Human Rights and advocates for the additional value that jus cogens can bring to core Human Rights implementation. The focal problem that the research addresses is the lack of clarity attached to jus cogens and its subsequent effects on effective core Human Rights implementation. To wonder why jus cogens remains ineffective and to see what can be done, and by whom, to enhance its impact on core Human Rights is the main goal of this study. The authors firmly believe that the jus cogens concept brings a significant contribution to core Human Rights implementation, putting them at the foundation of the international legal order. This effect is substantial to the future core Human Rights development, but, depends also on the future redefinition of jus cogens itself.

Humanitarian Intervention and the Clean Hands Doctrine in International Law

A serious issue that has confronted the international community is the legality of humanitarian intervention. Although the majority of scholars reject the existence of a doctrine of humanitarian intervention, could the attacked state invoke the responsibility of an intervening state before an international tribunal? This article attempts to answer this question in light of the often misunderstood clean hands doctrine in international law. It first concludes that under the lex lata, humanitarian intervention is prohibited under international law. This raises the question whether the clean hands doctrine may nevertheless preclude a court or tribunal from adjudicating in favour of a state that has been subject to humanitarian intervention. Although the clean hands doctrine exists under international law in various manifestations, its applicability in cases concerning humanitarian intervention is lacking. The article finally considers whether the jus cogens status of the prohibition of the use of force would prevent the applicability of the clean hands doctrine to humanitarian intervention cases were the clean hands doctrine to evolve into a customary international legal norm.
